Figure 2. Additive and interaction variance captured by detected loci.

Figure 2

(a) Total variance captured by detected QTL for each trait is plotted against the whole-genome estimate of additive genetic variance. Error bars show ±s.e. The diagonal line represents (variance captured by detected QTL=additive genetic variance) and is shown as a visual guide. (b) Total variance captured by detected QTL–QTL interactions from the marginal scan for each trait is plotted against the whole-genome estimate of interaction variance. Error bars show ±s.e. The diagonal line represents (variance captured by detected QTL–QTL interactions=interaction genetic variance) and is shown as a visual guide.
